Description - Famous Last Meals by Richard Cumyn
Famous Last Mealsis a trio of contemporary novellas about the roles we play in an age when everyone is an actor. The curtain opens on Candidates, a gentle satire starring a recent university grad who knows and cares little about politics but who finds himself working as a summer intern on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. Famous Last Meals examines two couples and their complex relationship as they re-enact the final repasts of famous people who died before the age of 30. The Woman in the Vineyard completes the triptych with a compulsive story about literary jealousy and the danger of becoming lost in the labyrinth of another writers sources.
